Mobile Health Exercise Program for Cancer Survivors

Knoxville, Tennessee
Participation in regular physical activity is vital to a healthy lifestyle. Research has shown that regular participation in physical activity among cancer survivors is not only able to improve health outcomes, but is also related to their quality of life. As we live in an age of technology, health wearables and smartphone apps might be one novel manner by which to help cancer survivors increase physical activity as well as improve health outcomes. Yet, the effectiveness of wearable and app as a tool for health promotion among cancer survivors is largely unstudied. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a personalized m-health intervention via fitness wearable (Fitbit Inspire 3) exercise app (sFitRx) on physical activity, weight, quality of life, individual beliefs, and emotions among cancer survivors.

Physical Activity for Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness

Toronto, Ontario
After completing novel activity or exercise we may experience exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD), resulting in a period of reduced muscle function and delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). DOMS is characterized by muscle pain and tenderness that typically resolves within a week. While the precise cause of DOMS is unknown, there is growing evidence implicating damage to the connective tissue that surrounds our muscle fibers and is related to a small amount of inflammation. This inflammation is a normal part of our body's ability to recovery from injuries and may be visualized through the use of ultrasound technology. A variety of recovery techniques have been proposed that may help with the recovery of DOMS such as massage and electrical muscle stimulation, but these are not always accessible. Therefore, we are interested in investigating whether the number of daily steps can affect how you experience DOMS.

Stronger at Home Intervention for Hip Fracture

Kingston, Ontario
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of a new 14-week individually-tailored home-based rehabilitation program called "Stronger at Home" with usual care in improving functional recovery in community-dwelling older adults after hip fractures. The main question this trial aims to answer are: • Is the Stronger at Home program more effective than usual care in improving functional recovery at the end of the 14-week intervention? secondary questions include: * What is the cost-utility of the Stronger at Home program compared to usual care at 3.5 months, 6 months, and 12 months after discharge? * Does the program have a sustained impact on functional recovery at 6 months and 12 months post-discharge? Participants in the trial will be asked to engage in the following tasks: * Participate in the Stronger at Home program, which includes using a self-directed toolkit consisting of educational resources and an illustrated exercise program. * Follow the guidelines provided in the toolkit for gradually increasing exercise intensity and incorporating different types of exercises into their daily life. The effects of the Stronger at Home program will be compared to those of usual care.

Ketone Supplement + Whey Protein for Muscle Protein Synthesis

Montreal, Quebec
An acute bout of resistance exercise stimulates muscle protein synthesis (MPS) rates for up to 24-48 hours, supporting muscle growth and repair. To optimize the anabolic effects of resistance exercise, the provision of dietary amino acids (i.e., proteins) is essential. Dietary protein intake provides the body with necessary amounts of essential and non-essential amino acids, which represent the building blocks for muscle proteins, enhancing anabolic muscle growth. The ingestion of dietary protein, such as whey protein, is well established to stimulate an increase in the rate of protein synthesis in skeletal muscle following resistance exercise. Research has demonstrated a dose-dependent relationship between protein intake and MPS rate, with 25 grams being the optimal dose to maximally stimulate MPS rates in younger adults with excess protein oxidized as a fuel source. Determining whether this maximally stimulated MPS response can be further heightened during post-exercise recovery using non-protein dietary factors is yet to be explored. Recently, it has been shown that novel orally ingested ketone body supplements can stimulate MPS rates in younger adults at rest. Ketone bodies (β-OHB) are lipid- derived molecules normally produced under conditions of glucose deprivation (i.e., fasting/starvation, or a low carbohydrate 'ketogenic' diet). However, these orally ingested ketone supplements rapidly increase blood ketone levels without the need for dietary restriction6. In vitro research showed that the combination of leucine and ketone bodies stimulated a 2-fold increase in MPS, compared to the leucine group alone, indicating synergistic effects of protein and ketone bodies on MPS. However, the effect of ketone supplementation, with and without dietary protein co-ingestion, on MPS rate during post-exercise recovery is yet to be investigated. If ketone bodies can amplify the anabolic response to dietary protein, they may provide a novel approach to maximizing muscle adaptation during post-exercise recovery. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of ketone monoester intake on postprandial muscle protein synthesis rates when consumed alone and when co-ingested with an optimal dose (25 g) of whey protein during recovery after resistance exercise compared to 1) an optimal dose of whey protein (25 g), and 2) a control flavored water. It is hypothesized that muscle protein synthesis rates will be stimulated following the ingestion of the ketone body beverage. Further, muscle protein synthesis rates will be further enhanced when the ketone-containing beverage and an optimal dose are taken together.

Cold-Water Immersion for Sports Recovery

Montreal, Quebec
In order to optimize sports performance, high-level athletes are required to manage conflicting training objectives, which often result in periods of high-volume training. These athletes need to perform heavy resistance training sessions to promote physiological adaptations, which consequently induce fatigue. Yet, they need to minimize fatigue to perform subsequent high-quality training sessions often within the same day. To support these training endeavours, a high-quality dietary regimen and adequate protein consumption is deemed to be an essential component of an athlete's recovery plan, as it has been shown to support muscle recovery and reduce muscle inflammation following exercise. Indeed, current sports nutrition recommendations advocate for the consumption of dietary protein and carbohydrate after exercise to promote tissue repair and replenish muscle energy stores (glycogen). Additionally, previous research has shown how water immersion therapies post-exercise may alleviate fatigue and restore performance. However, little is known about how different temperatures, as well as timing of cold-water immersion can support performance recovery in a population of athletes adhering to contemporary post-exercise nutrition recommendations. The objective of this project is to investigate the effects of timing of cold-water immersion relative to exercise on performance recovery within the same day, as well as to investigate whether cold water immersion augments blood amino acid concentrations after exercise and protein intake.

Peer Support for Exercise Habits

Thunder Bay, Ontario
The purpose of this randomized controlled pilot trial is to test the effectiveness of a six-week tailored physical activity program with and without peer mentoring on the psychological constructs and exercise behaviour of inactive undergraduate women. The objectives are to: * Quantify the degree to which a peer-mentorship intervention affects exercise motivation determined through three basic psychological needs (i.e., autonomy, competence, and relatedness). * Examine general psychological distress and exercise engagement throughout the study. * Qualitatively explore participants' experiences following the completion of the program using an open-ended survey to gain a better understanding of its impact. Researchers will compare the parallel arm conditions to see how the inclusion of social support impacts exercise engagement. Participants will be asked to engage in exercise three times a week at the campus gym; those in the intervention condition will have an assigned peer-mentor who will join them for one weekly session and virtually communicate with them between sessions.

Melatonin for Exercise Recovery

Orlando, Florida
Oral Melatonin is a commercially available product available alone and as a constituent in a number of supplements. Previous research suggests that short-term supplementation with oral melatonin may amplify the recovery response to damaging resistance exercise via modulation of subsequent immune and inflammatory responses. However the effects of oral melatonin on neutrophil and monocyte invasion/migration, a critical step in the resolution of skeletal muscle tissue homeostasis, has not been examined. An oral melatonin supplement (5mg) will be provided three times daily beginning 24-hours before and ending 48-hours after an acute bout of damaging resistance exercise (total 15mg/day for 3 days). Goals: 1. To investigate the effect of melatonin on systemic and cellular responses following an acute bout of damaging resistance exercise. 2. To investigate the effect of melatonin on measures of functional performance before and during recovery from an acute bout of damaging resistance exercise.

Prehabilitation Exercise for Ovarian Cancer

Halifax, Nova Scotia (NS)
Individuals with ovarian cancer have very poor survival rates. This is because the cancer is not usually detected until it has reached advanced stages. How long an individual survives also is determined by the cancer treatment they receive. Although there are best treatment practices to improve survival, some women have other conditions that limit treatment options. One such condition seen in as many as 50% of women with advanced ovarian cancer is frailty (an age-related decline in function and health). This is a major concern as doctors will often have to change how the cancer is treated based on the patient being frail. For example, patients living with frailty are less likely to have their full tumor removed during surgery. They are also more likely to have complications with surgery, stay in the hospital longer, and recover less well from surgery overall. Patients living with frailty also are more likely to experience delays in their chemotherapy starting, receive lower doses of chemotherapy and/or receive fewer cycles of chemotherapy. These changes in treatment may decrease how long a patient survives after diagnosis. Thus, research is needed to explore strategies to decrease frailty in patients who require treatment for advanced ovarian cancer. An option gaining more attention is physical exercise (e.g. walking, repeatedly rising from a chair). Exercise performed before surgery, which is called prehabilitation, can improve how well a patient recovers after surgery and increase how long they survive. Research has shown that prehabilitation is very beneficial for patients undergoing surgery for heart disease. However, it is not clear whether prehabilitation works for those with advanced ovarian cancer that are going to have surgery. Therefore, the investigators want to explore how a 4+ week exercise program performed while waiting for surgery for advanced ovarian cancer changes frailty and how a patient recovers after surgery. The investigators will specifically look whether the exercise program: 1) reduces how frail a patient is before surgery; 2) improves how well the patient recovers after surgery; and 3) affects the patient's chemotherapy treatment plan. This study will provide important information about the ability of prehabilitation exercise to improve surgical and treatment outcomes in women with advanced ovarian cancer. Overall, it is believed that exercise has the potential to improve the survival of advanced ovarian cancer patients.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Exercise Recovery clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Exercise Recovery clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Exercise Recovery trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Exercise Recovery is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Exercise Recovery medical study?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Exercise Recovery clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Mobile Health Exercise Program for Cancer Survivors, Vicia Faba Supplement for Muscle Recovery and Postbiotic for Exercise Performance to the Power online platform.
